Kathy Jones won $800,000 on the Powerball by matching 5 of the 5 white balls and using the Power Play for the multiplier which hit 4. That’s 4 times $200,000 to make $800,000! I like to see people winning! More at Knoxnews.com.

Can you afford to play?

Doug McCaughan — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 11:42:56 +0000

Lotteries resemble the United States tax system. They reward the rich and punish the poor. A lottery is a gamble. An adage to live by is "don’t gamble until you have money to lose." If the money you put into the lottery would have better served you by buying food or gas or paying the mortgage then you probably should not be playing the lottery. The Catch-22 of it is that if you are struggling with food, gas, mortgage, or other basic necessities, then the lottery may provide the only opportunity for relieve. In that case, the lottery is not gambling. You are getting value for the money you spend. The money buys hope.

To the wealthy, the lottery is a game. It is exciting and fun to play. For them, the money spent on the lottery does no cause bankruptcy or inability to pay for their basic necessities or affect budgets at all. The wealthy can afford to purchase more entries or tickets thus increasing their chances of winning.

The lottery has been called a poor tax. I am not so sure that is accurate. To reiterate, the poor get value for their lottery purchases. They buy hope. Hope for relief from the oppression of debt. Hope for an opportunity to work a little less. Hope for a different lifestyle. For them, the lottery is opportunity.

Holding a winning ticket

Have you ever wanted your ticket to win so badly that you were afraid to look at the results? I am holding 3 Powerball tickets because I know one of them is a winner. See, according to quantum physics, something unobserved is in all possible states. That means, my 3 tickets have won the Powerball! However, at the same time, each one has lost the drawing many times over. I simply have to observe it as a winning ticket! That’s where I get a little confused. I am not sure how to know when to look it so that the numbers are the winning numbers. I think deliberation has to come to an end. The time is now!
